A second success for our client. This case has a long history. His appeal was dismissed many years ago by the First-Tier Tribunal who found that his deportation under the Immigration Rules was lawful; at this stage, he was not our client. We drafted a fresh claim with evidence of a life with his British children and wife. The Home Office refused his application.

Mr Gajjar argued that the Judge in the historic appeal had in fact looked at the wrong Immigration Rule. Permission to bring judicial review proceedings was granted and the Home Office agreed to reconsider.
